Sweetheart, Do You Still Love Me

Chapter 239

“Aha! Let’s see how you’re going to refute me!”

Yelena felt that it was fun seeing Max getting exasperated. It was her first time gaining the upper hand in their relationship, so there was no denying she was exalted.

“You’re unreasonable!”

Max was so furious that he almost blacked out. It never crossed his mind that this young woman, who had always been obedient, could be so rebellious.

He suddenly thought of something and squinted. “I’m disciplining you on your brother’s behalf. If you don’t behave yourself, I’ll inform him.”

Yelena clicked her tongue. “Hex? Do you think he can discipline me?” She appeared scornful. Why does he keep coming up with excuses instead of telling me what’s on his mind?

“He said he’d tell your mom.”

The next moment, the smug smile on Yelena’s face froze. “Forget it. Just pretend that I said nothing.”

Then, she snuck behind Max, looking crestfallen.

Seeing that, Elspeth pressed her palm against her forehead helplessly. This was the best chance at forcing Max to confess his love for Yelena, but the woman easily yielded to his threat.

Meanwhile, Eric didn’t read too much into it as he extended his hand to shake hands with Max. “Hello, nice to meet you.”NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Although Max looked at him coldly, he still reached out to take the other man’s hand forcefully. “Well, I’m not too happy to see you.”

“Ouch!” Eric couldn’t help but yelp as he felt pain in his hand.

He turned to Elspeth, looking dumbfounded. “Your friend is full of strength.”

“Haha…” Elspeth let out a dry laugh. “He’s like that. Don’t read too much into it.”

“Alright.” Eric nodded. “Let’s go in now.”

Elspeth then brought him to the film set of ‘Song of Viollenys’. Yelena wanted to tag along, but Max forced her to stay behind.

When the director registered Elspeth’s presence, he felt his head aching again. “Miss Lynwood, the decision isn’t mine to make. As I said, I can’t afford to offend the person behind Miss Walker.”

“Look, Eric. Everyone is scared of Emma now.”

Elspeth turned around and shrugged helplessly at Eric, who stared at the director with a stiff face. “What did Emma tell you?”

The director appeared hesitant, but he still told him everything. “Emma said that if we lend the film set to Miss Lynwood, she’ll tell the person behind her to destroy our production team.”

After a pause, he continued, “I thought the person was probably Callum since he’s on good terms with Miss Lynwood. As such, he’d likely agree to it. However, Miss Walker said that the person behind her is the son of an Oil Magnate. She even showed us proof. Left with no choice, I could only give in to her demand.”

Upon finishing his words, the director let out a sigh, appearing helpless.

“What if I tell you the Oil Magnate’s son is my friend?”

The director widened his eyes. “Are you serious?”

Seeing that the director didn’t believe her, Elspeth turned to the man beside her. “Eric, how are you going to prove your identity to them?”

Eric smiled and fished out his passport. “Well, I suppose this is good enough to prove my identity.”

When the director took a look at the passport and made out the famous name, his face paled.

It really is him!

In an instant, his legs turned to jelly as his voice softened. “Sir, why are you here?”

Eric kept a gentle smile on his face. “I’ve come to Chars to deal with the matter regarding Emma. She has threatened all of you using my name and harmed Elspeth’s interests. I’m displeased with that. As such, I want to tell you that for all matters related to Elspeth, you have to prioritize her needs first.”

Only then did the director realize Elspeth was this wealthy man’s favorite woman. On the other hand, Emma was just a paper tiger.

“You could’ve called instead of coming all the way here.” The director was a tactful person, so he agreed to everything Eric said without hesitation. “I got it. Don’t worry. I’ll lend the film set to Miss Lynwood at once. She can use it for however long she wants.”

Elspeth smiled. “If he only gave you a call, would you have believed him?”

The director appeared embarrassed, for Elspeth was right.

Nonetheless, since Elspeth was able to invite such a powerful man to the film set, the director didn’t dare refute her. As such, he nodded in agreement. “You’re right, Miss Lynwood.”

“Alright, we only need the film set tomorrow. We’ll stop bothering you for now.”

She was giving them a heads-up; since she needed the film set the next day, they’d better clean things up quickly.

The director nodded and saw them off, seeming as though he was worried that he would offend them in any way.

Upon leaving the place, Elspeth stopped in her tracks and looked at Eric’s profile. She then asked, “When are you going back, Eric?”

“There’s no hurry. Since I’m here, I’ve decided to look around.”

Then, Eric turned around and gazed at Elspeth before saying sincerely, “By the way, do you have some free time tomorrow? I want you to be my exclusive tour guide.”

The next moment, Elspeth felt a cold sensation on her back.

Just as she expected, she turned around and saw a gloomy-looking Callum.

“I was wondering why you left all of a sudden. Turns out you went looking for another man behind my back.” Callum spoke slowly and calmly as though he was announcing a death sentence to a convict.

Elspeth shuddered and hurriedly replied, “I can explain, Callum. It’s just a misunderstanding…”

“Oh? Is it a misunderstanding? Are you going to tell me you were planning to let me know after the dust settled because you were worried I’d get mad? Is that why you did it without my knowledge?”

Watching as Callum’s face fell, Elspeth smiled and nodded helplessly. “Yes.”

“Do you know you’re in the wrong?”

Elspeth nodded repeatedly. “Yes.”

“How are you going to make it up to me, then?”

Callum inched closer to her and looked at her face with an inscrutable expression.

“I’m going to…” Elspeth was usually a talkative person, but at this moment, she could hardly finish her words.

“Why don’t we head to Capolis tomorrow and shoot a kissing scene there? He’ll watch on the sidelines.”

Callum enunciated the words ‘kissing scene’, and there didn’t seem to be room for rejection.

Elspeth was speechless as she thought that the man was rather childish.

However, faced with the man’s grim expression, she couldn’t possibly turn him down.

“Goodness! If I have to watch you kiss, I’ll go mad!” Eric cried upon learning the news.

“I want you to watch us kiss and let you know that you must not covet my woman.” Callum gave him a dispassionate look.

“That’s not what I mean! I’ll be jealous of Elspeth if I watch you two kiss!”

Eric looked at Callum lovingly as emotions undulated in his heart.

Elspeth and Callum were too stunned to speak.

A moment later, Elspeth questioned, “What do you mean, Eric?”

All of a sudden, she had a premonition.
